No useful documentation
The "documentation" of this template does not, in fact, document the use of this template (it merely mentions it in a table of similar templates). I had to look at the template code to figure out why it even exists (apparently, merely to avoid typing "|group=note"). If this template is going to stick around, it should "justify" its existence by documenting how and why it should be used (vis-a-vis any other footnote-related template). - dcljr (talk) 13:51, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- The template is redundant to
{{efn}}, you should be using that instead. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 07:52, 31 July 2022 (UTC)- Not exactly. This is just as redundant (in exactly the same way) as
{{efn-ua}},{{efn-lr}}, etc., a fact that would be more clear if it were named{{efn-note}}. Perhaps it should just be moved to that name (leaving a redirect). - dcljr (talk) 02:14, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

– Consistency with other footnote templates, see H:PREGROUP. – MaterialWorks 22:06, 23 August 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. Sennecaster (Chat) 04:33, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Comment I think it'd be clearer if it were
{{efn-notenum}}/{{notelist-notenum}}, where this pair generates named endlinks "note #" , and not a freeform label where one could enter such a name as a parameter into NoteTag -- 67.70.25.80 (talk) 08:37, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

- Oppose. Not clear that any consistency is being gained here, and suggested new titles seem awkward. SnowFire (talk) 16:39, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose. Absent a good argument for why the new names are more useful than the old, I don't think the move should be performed just to complete a set. Also,
{{notelist-note}}seems a bit redundant, no? —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 05:25, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
Line breaks in notes
Is there a means of enforcing line breaks in notes?
If you look at the article Canon Alberic's Scrap-Book, I have used this template to provide the English translation of Latin text from the story in question. Ideally, I would like the note text to display in the same format as the body text, i.e. with line breaks. The < br > code does not seem to work within notetag.

- @McPhail: Exactly where is this? I've looked through Canon Alberic's Scrap-Book, including the four edits made recently, and the only instance of
<br>- or its exact equivalent,<br />- is in the infobox:So why do you think that it doesn't work within| title_orig = A Curious Book<br/>The Scrap-book of Canon Alberic
{{notetag}}? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 09:30, 21 March 2026 (UTC)- Apologies, you are correct, I have tried again and the break tags are working fine. Sorry, I must have done something incorrectly when I tested it. McPhail (talk) 11:03, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
